Abstract
Background: Adenotonsillectomy is the most frequently performed ambulatory surgical
procedure in children. Post operative agitation and inadequate pain control, for children
undergoing adenotonsillectomy, can be a challenge. The aim of this study was to assess the effect
of intravenous dexamethasone and oral acetaminophen codeine on emergence agitation and pain
after adenotonsillectomy in children.
Methods: One hundred and five pediatric patients (3-7 years old), scheduled to undergo
adenotonsillectomy under general anesthesia, were enrolled in the study. Thirty minutes before
induction, patients were randomized to three groups. Group 1 received 0.2 mg/kg of intravenous
dexamethasone and 0.25 ml/kg of oral placebo syrup. Group 2 received 20 mg/kg of oral
acetaminophen codeine syrup and 0.05 ml/kg of intravenous saline. Group 3 received 0.25 ml/kg
of oral placebo syrup and 0.05 ml/kg of intravenous saline. Emergence agitation and postoperative
pain were assessed, recorded and compared.
Result: Agitation was less frequent in dexamethasone and acetaminophen codeine groups in
comparison with placebo group, but there were not significant differences between the two groups.
The pain frequencies in the three groups were not significantly different.
Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that the administration of intravenous
dexamethasone (0.2 mg/kg) and oral acetaminophen codeine (20 mg/kg) thirty minutes before
anesthesia can significantly decrease the incidence and severity of agitation but does not have an
effect on postoperative pain.

HTML5 Games On Android

On my last hollidays, I made two HTML5 games, and published on android market. Nowadays javascript has powerful libraries for doing almost everything, and also there are several compilers from java or c code to javascript, converting opengl c code to html5 canvas, but definitely, javascript execution is slower than dalvik applications, and of course much slower than arm c libs. For improving the speed of sounds and images loader, I have used javascript asynchronous execution and scheduling priority has been controlled with setTimeout/setInterval which deprioritize or priorize a code block. This games are published on the android market here: Android Planets and here: Far Planet Related news Hacker Hardware Tools Pentest Tools Port Scanner Hacker Tools For Mac Tools Used For Hacking Hacker Techniques Tools And Incident Handling Easy Hack Tools Hacking Tools Kit Hacking Tools Usb Hacker Hardware Tools Hacker Tools Hardware Hack Tools For Windows Hacking Tools For G...
